Wedding Party

Meet our family and friends who will be standing with us on our big day!

Catherine Saylor

Matron of Honor

Cat and Melissa have been sisters since Cat was born. They used to dress up as brides and make their Barbies get married to Aladdin, the only male doll they had. Cat has been a role model to Melissa as a new mom.


Lamar Zook

Best Man

Lamar is Stephen’s older brother. They have played Legos, built dams in unappreciative farmer’s fields, biked and hiked and traveled with each other throughout life. To their mom’s despair, they still punch each other a lot.

Melanie Pang

Matron of Honor

Even though Melanie is Melissa's baby sister, they got engaged the same year and share a love of yoga and food festivals. Mel promised not to have a baby before Melissa, but she beat her to getting married last summer.


Phil Newswanger

Groomsman

Phil is Stephen’s closest friend from childhood. They met when they were 10, and have been friends ever since. A shared Plain background and a love of the Eagles and good beer has paved the way for their friendship.

Kenisha Marks

Bridesmaid

Kenisha and Melissa met on a plane to South Korea, lived together for seven years, and have travelled to 12 (or more?) countries together.


Alvin Brown

Groomsman

Alvin and Stephen were roommates for four years in college. Their friendship improved each year, even if the living conditions did not.

Rachael Eisenberg

Bridesmaid

Rachael and Melissa met Melissa's first year of law school and share a love of food, scenic hikes, and Korbie (Rachael's dog).


Alex Johnson

Groomsman

Alex and Stephen lived together for three years in college, plus a summer when Stephen crashed on his couch. More importantly, they are Wordle pals.

Laurel Grbach

Officiant

Laurel and Melissa met in law school and Laurel was Melissa and Kenisha's unofficial third roommate. Laurel is always up for whatever tasting menu pop up festival Melissa and Raamaan have found.


Raamaan McBride

Officiant

Raamaan is Melissa's food soulmate and if they had matched, they would have bankrupted each other. Luckily Raamaan and Laurel found each other and he and Stephen soon became fast forced friends.

Maya Saylor

Flower Girl

Maya is Melissa's niece, her matron of honor Cat's daughter. Melissa and Maya share a love of silly jokes, singing Disney songs and showtunes, and crafting.


Thomas Saylor

Ring Bearer

Thomas is Melissa's nephew, her matron of honor Cat's son. Melissa and Thomas share a love of tickling baby Noelle's feet.

Noelle Pang Zook

Flower Baby – Baby of Honor – Best Baby

Noelle is the bride and groom's daughter and the love of their lives.
